With so many great dishes at restaurants across Tulsa, it’s impossible to try them all. That’s why we love Restaurant Week, happening Sept. 6-15. Restaurant Week is a chance to try the menus at more than 50 restaurants for a reduced price or from a prix fixe menu. Just as great is the fact that a portion of sales from every delicious meal goes to the Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma.

One of the fun things about Restaurant Week is that some chefs create new dishes or signature cocktails for the event. So, take the opportunity to go restaurant hopping — and for a good cause.

The Food Bank uses Restaurant Week proceeds to support Food for Kids programs, which include the backpack program, school pantries, summer and holiday feeding, free family farmers’ markets and more.
